~ The Amazing Race ~ Season 16 ~

[disneyjunkie]

I'm sorry to see that team go. I didn't read the whole thread. When can we discuss the results?

One last question, when did they move Chile to China?

Around the same time they started using Brazilian money

I'm not the OP, but IMHO, this is a discussion thread. So if you don't want spoilers, then I guess don't check in until it's aired in your timezone or you've watched your TIVO.

There's no way anyone can know if one person hasn't seen it all the way through.

That being said...my initial faves are...

Team Green - Grandmother and granddaughter. They looked a little weak tonight, but I like their spunk.

Mom Lawyers - I think they may have enough grit and luck to make it through.

Cowboys - like they said, just because they are cowboys doesn't mean they are hicks. Though they did mess up the money thing in the beginning, they came back right away.

No one else really stood out in my fave column. Don't really like the lesbian couple. Can't put my finger on why. Don't care for Jeff and Jordan.

Seemed like a lot of missteps all around tonight.

I like watching Jeff and Jordan, but Jeff is going to have to work harder than the normal person to make up for Jordan's deficiencies. I remember on Big Brother when they were talking about time and she didn't know a quarter til the hour was 15 minutes. Jeff is a good competitor though.

I know- I was thinking that about them too. I love them!!

 

[nikkistevej]

is anyone else having trouble with adjusting to jeff and jordan being out in the wild instead of being cooped up in the bb house?

lol

 

[momrek06]

HOWDY, I am the OP, and I do not care one way or the other about SPOILERS. I actually like them. I am in CA, I have another 1.5 hours before TAR comes on BUT I am reading here now.

So, TAR DISer's, you all decide whether you want SPOILERS or not.

I don't mind discussing AR in real time or what people have seen out in the news regarding AR but I don't care for spoilers that people get from web sites that say who is next to go or who wins AR.

Jordan will probably provide us with a lot of comic relief.

Agreed! I was amazed at how CLOSE the teams are! Wow! Does anyone know if the game continues in Chile next week? Or are they off? DD24 is doing practice teaching in Chile in March so seeing where she is off to is exciting in itself.

 

[Mrs.Toad]

Well, I am not familiar with any of these contestants, but I'd say that Jordan girl seems ditzier than Caite.

She's the one who said she needed to fly to China, right?

I don't consider that a spoiler. I agree that anything that's aired, in any time zone, is open for discussion.

A spoiler would be telling who's going to be eliminated next week, or who the final 3 are, and my vote is against spoilers.

I watched w/ my DC's DS11,9, 2 and DD6. I was surprised at the amount of bad words used in today's AR. I think the @@itch word was said a ton of times. I never noticed it before in any of the races. Maybe I was a bit more intuned to it bc the DC were watching.

It was a great race.

China???? Really???

 

[disneydreamertoo]

It is weird to see JORFF out in the wild! I don't know if this is a spoiler but I think it is a fact that was brought up on another website that Jordan suffers from a learning disability. It makes me root for her even more--she is so genuine and out there with her shortcomings. The fact that she finds it difficult to tell time and confuses CHile with CHina is just endearing to me! I'm so glad she won Big Brother and hope she is on the winning team again! Way to go in winning first this week! Was it a trip to Vancouver? The Olympics Vancouver? WOW!

 

[Alice28]

thought it was GREAT!!!!!

Love team JJ!!!

Also liked the mom-preneuers, the cowboys and the grandma/grand-daughter teams.

so far only really dislike the lesbians cause they seem to have a mean side. Don't like that right out of the chute. Hopefully they will shake that off.

Oh, sure. Season 9? 8? 10? The one with the gay couple and the attractive brothers? The season where one team overturned their jeep and a cameraman was injured? The gay men used that word ALL the time.

Maybe it was Season 7?

Them and Jordan (Dan's brother). It irritated me that they mocked Caite... well, Jordan did (imitating her awkward pageant question response, instead of just repeating it) and that the others joined in his immature response.

dang! i missed it...actually i slept through it...

Yes! That too was immature.

 

[travelbug24]

Boy, did anyone else feel the show should have been two hours? I felt the house painting task was cut way too short. They had the father/daughter team painting the wrong house (hilarious with the translation of the owners/workers) and then all of a sudden they are running to the pit stop.

What type of disability does Jordan have? Dyslexia? And Caitie saying Danke when they handed her the clue at the painting task. I am sorry those who support her...not too bright. The cowboys need to pay attention to the clue. They wouldn't have made such a stupid mistake exchanging money to Brazilian.

Do not like the short dark haired one from the dating girls. I am sorry the husband/wife team was eliminated, they seemed really nice.

She reminds me of my DD, she also has a learning disability, she gets confuse with similar things, countries or words that sound similar, she is bilingual and she gets confuse even more with Spanish words that sound similar to words in English, I know some people might thing that they are dumb but they are very smart in other things. My DD has dyslexia.

I like them too, the J J team.

 

[happygirl]

I was really sad to the black team booted. I feel so bad for the guy he really tired his hardest.

Are the cowboys gay? I really like the father and daughter and the grandma and granddaughter and Jeff and Jordan!!!

Yay, for Jeff and Jordan for coming n first

 

[Gabes_mommy]

Great first episode!!! Love Jordan and Jeff!!! I also thought Miss Teen South Carolina was cute and I felt for her with the other teams making fun of her - not cool! It looks like we may have our villians already.

I made DH watch with me and he enjoyed it too. I love TAR!
